Berlin-based banking startup N26 is rolling out a new stock and ETF trading feature starting with Austria as the first market. This product launch marks a renewed focus on the startup’s core markets with a larger portfolio of banking products in those countries.
Like many challenger banks, N26 started with a simple product — an account that you could use to send and receive money, and a card that you could manage in real time from a mobile app. And the company managed to convince millions of customers to open an account as it simply worked better than regular banks (banking apps usually aren’t that great).
